Hand Painted Textile Abstract Art Patterns on Leather - Colorful Wallet and Card Holders

One of my favorite accessories to make are my leather wallets.  This is a new version, more of a card holder, featuring my original hand painted abstract art.  They are different from my pouches in that they don't have a button snap, they're meant to be a simple card holder leather wallet.  I love painting the patterns.  Soon after these beauties dry, I'll seal them and hand sew them with colorful waxed thread.  Then they'll be ready to list in the shop!

A beautiful mess.

The hand painted leather is drying while I pick out my waxed thread colors.

Still drying.

Now they're ready to punch holes and hand sew with waxed thread.

Lots of paint!

Pretty patterns.  My most favorite part of the process.

Handmade Neon Leather Friendship Stacking Bracelets with Tassels

I have a little bit of down time right now as I've got caught up on all of my orders.  So what better time to update my shop and add some new items!  I made these beautiful leather tassel bracelets that feature my hand painted art work perfect for summer.  Each one is unique and is an easy way to bring a pop of color to any outfit.

I also made a few new leather geometric earrings and another variation of my tassel ombre painted necklace in a mint hue which you can find in my shop.

Hope your all having a great summer so far! xoxo

New Handmade Abstract Painted Leather Coin Purse and Wallet

Back from a crazy holiday season!  My December sales were unprecedented, through the roof!  I am so happy how the year ended and now it's time to dive right back in.  I've been working on a new product line of leather pouches that can be used as coin purses, business card holders and wallets.  This is the first design I've listed in my shop and I am so proud of how it came out.

The design features original hand painted abstract artwork in bright bold color and pattern.  Also special to these pouches are the intricate metalwork with woven chain around the edges.  I thought that would be a fun and unique touch to the bags instead of using traditional thread.

More to come in this series.  I was so excited I had to post just one to give you a quick preview of the new accessories I'm creating.

Hand Painted Geometric Triangle Necklace

I am working on a few exciting wholesale orders at the moment.  This batch of hand cut triangle leather necklaces are like looking into a kaleidoscope of color.  I could not resist photographing all 10 necklaces together. My desk, hands, clothes and even my hair are covered in paint!

I really enjoy painting and love that I can incorporate it into my leather jewelry.  Since I've introduced my hand painted designs to my geometric jewelry, I have received positive feedback from other buyers and sellers and I couldn't be happier!  My signature geometric forms, mostly faceted with hard edges, combined with the hand painted element, which is softer and has no defined border or edge, creates a unique contrast.  Both elements, whilst opposite, work together in balance to create a three dimensional illusion that makes the jewelry really stand out.
